[He closes his eyes. It's hardly a surprise Allura isn't talking about what happened. He gets it. There are experiences that barely leave the corridors of his mind. Times with the Qri. Moments in the cells where his world had narrowed down to day to day. Moments he thought he was going to lose them all.
Times in hospitals...
Even here there are demons he doesn't let out of the dark hole he stuffed them into. He shuts it all away as he's had to do for far too long.] I'd like it if you stayed closer to the rest of us. I know we all need our space but, we can support each other through this.
All of us. [Even Lotor. For all his avoiding him to not cause further friction, he isn't so cruel as to leave him out right now. He had been fine with everyone spreading out. The Circle is large and he'd included the Circle itself in his pool of responsibility. His days are busy with preparing others, and gathering what facts he can or passing them on. But death as it always does has a way of tearing the veneer of safety away.
It reminded him of how fast people he loves can just be gone.]
Anyway...Whatever this creature is. Violet is tied to it in some way. It seems like she sent the distress signal herself. I'm not sure on that. All of that felt really off.
The creature itself had a nest. While one team went down to find out, [He falters his voice straining at the end. He takes a breath and keeps going.] Find out what happened to you.
Another team distracted and killed the creature. We think it was actively using its abilities to keep us from contacting one another and attacking those on the bridge.
My team's magic all got twisted into new abilities. [Here he pauses. It's not a strained silence. His voice comes out tentative like he's not sure where the ground is.] ...do you know what a dragon is?
